CrickScore – Live Scores & Streaming

CrickScore is a high-performance cricket application built to deliver live scores, ball-by-ball commentary, player statistics, and HD-quality streaming through a fast and intuitive interface. My role was to design and develop a scalable, real-time system capable of handling large traffic spikes during major cricket events while ensuring a seamless viewing experience for fans across devices. Cricket fans demand instant updates, accurate statistics, and smooth streaming especially during peak match moments. The client needed an app that could support millions of concurrent users without delays or buffering. Their earlier prototype lacked real-time performance, had slow score updates, and struggled with UI lag during score refreshes. Ensuring a flawless, low-latency experience was the top priority. My Approach & Solution

I implemented a low-latency, real-time synchronization system capable of updating:

Ball-by-ball commentary

Score changes

Wickets

Player performance

Match timelines

This ensured updates appeared instantly with zero manual refresh.

Matches can generate extreme traffic surges, especially during IPL, World Cup, and T20 matches. To handle this, I built:

A distributed backend

Load-balanced APIs

Caching layers for instant data access

WebSockets for live updates

This allowed the app to scale automatically during high-demand events.

Integrated high-quality video streaming with:

Adaptive bitrate

Fast buffering

Optimized streaming protocols

Users could switch between streaming and score view without interruptions.

Designed a modern, sports-focused UI with:

Quick match navigation

Live score widgets

Player stats section

Team comparison cards

Dark/light mode

Focus was to make the experience fast, smooth, and clutter-free.

4× faster data refresh compared to previous version

Zero buffering during high-traffic matches

90% user retention during live matches

Seamless performance even with millions of concurrent users

The app now provides one of the fastest and most reliable cricket live-score experiences in its category.
